Other Restorations

Sun, rain, snow, this table has seen it all. Sadly the newer version of the table is not made a sturdy as this older one. So the customer asked if I could help save it for them. 

After a good sanding back, the full extent of the water damage was revealed. Rotten planks were hollowed out and re filled, screws were changed and braces were added to strengthen the legs and seats. A waterproof stain was used to seal the wood leaving the table looking like new. 

This  solid oak top was badly water damaged around the sink area and nail glue had been spilt on the breakfast bar. The customer was previously told that the kitchen top needed removing and replacing as it could not be saved. Martin had other ideas...

After a good sanding, A water stain remover was used to lighted the damaged darker wood that was still visible. All of the marks on the unit were now not visible. A top coat of Osmo Top Oil was used for its waterproof properties and food hygiene rating. Needless to say, the customer was happy.

This Record No 52E  has ceased and was rusted, Its not made of wood I hear you shout. Well, the clap is made of wood and needed sanding, so I took on the job.

By the power of brown sauce, Brasso, oil, some elbow grease and a lick of paint. This clamp was as good as new. Even the quick release clamp was working.
